Popis: The approximately pentagonal pyamidal arrangement for boron atoms in B6H10 has been shown to be attached to a hydrogen arrangement resulting in Cs‐m molecular symmetry. There are four bridge hydrogens and no BH2 groups in the molecule. The boron framework is bonded, to a very rough approximation, by two electron‐pair bonds and two three‐center bonds. The electron‐pair bond perpendicular to the molecular symmetry plane is usually short (1.60 A). Comparison with other boron hydrides leads to some tentative conclusions about factors governing the relative stabilities of these compounds.
